CULTURE

Israel is an old-new country, small in size, but with a culturally active, heterogeneous population. Four thousand years o Jewish heritage, over a century o Zionism, and more than hal a century o modern statehood have contributed to a culture which has already created an identity o its own, while preserving the uniqueness o 70 dierent communities. A largely immigrant society, Israel's creative expression has absorbed many dierent cultural and social inuences, as it blends tradition and innovation, and strives to steer a course between Israeli particularism and universalism. The constant search or cultural identity is expressed through creativity in a broad range o art orms, appreciated and enjoyed by a great many people as part o daily lie.
